      Color Glass Condensate?

      "The next few years should be very exciting, but also require much effort on the part of theorists and experimentalists to be more quantitative in their studies and in the expectations of what physics can be gained as we pass out of the initial exploratory phase"

      Spin & Heavy Ion Systematics

      This (spin) program is now poised to make the basic measurement of the gluon spin distribution in the proton and to begin the new study of transversity measurements.

      Towards Definitive Measurements CERN

      CERN

      "The physics topic of deuteron-gold reactions is an important topic to pursue at RHIC. It is essential however to expand the capabilities of the existing detectors beyond single inclusive measurements and also to further define focused physics goals. However, difficult decisions may need to be made concerning long deuteron-gold (or preferably proton-gold) studies weighed against continued spin development and detector upgrade funding."
